CFR sect 334 (c) Baudino Law Group PLC (Law Firm) hereby files its Motion to Quash

Subpoena Duces Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum as

follows

I PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The parties to this action have asserted immunity from this administrative action and the

proceedings pending before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia

under the state action doctrine The Law Firm s filing of this Motion to Quash Subpoena Duces

Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum is not intended to waive

the dispositive issue of the applicability of the state action immunity doctrine and all defenses to

these actions are specifically Incorporated by reference herein

II INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY

The Law Firm is a law firm based in Des Moines Iowa with two offices in Georgia It

has a longstanding relationship with the Respondent In this matter Phoebe Putney Health

System Inc (PPHS) representing it in litigation as well as transactional matters since its

formation The Law Firm presently represents PPHS on several matters most of which are

unrelated to the matter presently before the Admmistrative Law Judge The Law Firm has also

represented the Respondent the Hospital Authority of Albany-Dougherty County (Authority)

regarding various matters over the years

Prior to December 21 2010 Palmyra Hospital Inc (Palmyra) the Authority and

PPHS negotiated an Asset Purchase Agreement for the Authority to purchase Palmyra Medical

Center from Palmyra On December 212010 the Authority and Palmyra signed an Asset

Purchase Agreement for the Authority to acquire Palmyra Medical Center (Transaction) The

Law Firm is representing the Authority and PPHS as transactional counsel with regard to this

Transaction Although the Law Firm has on-going representation of PPHS on multiple unrelated

matters as mentioned above on November 10 20 10 the Law Firm was retained to represent the

Authority specifically with regard to the Transaction

On December 29 2010 the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition (FTC)

informed the parties that it had opened a non-public preliminary investigation of the proposed

Transaction Shortly thereafter PPHS retained the Weil Gotshal amp Manges LLP law firm in

Washington DC to represent PPHS in this FTC investigation The Law Firm undertook

representation of the Authority for purposes of the FTC investigation along with Bondurant

Mixson amp Elmore LLP a law firm based in Atlanta Georgia which is lead counsel regarding

the FTC investigation on behalf of the Authority At all times material hereto Perry amp Walters

LLP a law firm based in Albany Georgia represents the Authority as general counsel

On February 3 2011 PPHS was informed by letter that the FTC changed its investigation

from a preliminary investigation to a formal Investigation During the course of the preliminary

investigation as well as the formal investigation the Authority and PPHS produced

documentation amounting to over 250000 pages to the FTC Despite complete cooperation

with the FTCs requests to resolve its questions without formal litigation with regard to the

Transaction on April 26 2011 a complaint for temporary restraining order and preliminary

injunction was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia by the

FTC and the Attorney General for the State ofGeorgia A complaint before the Administrative

Law Judge was filed on April 19 2011 regarding the same matter

On June 13 20 11 a Subpoena Duces Tecum was served upon the Law Firm with a

compliance date of July I 2011 (Subpoena) 1 The documents sought in the Subpoena mirror

I The Subpoena is attached hereto as Exhibit A

2

the documents the FTC seeks in an almost identical Subpoena Duces TeCllm served upon the

Sovereign Group LLC a third party to this action with the same July 1 2011 compliance

date Funher the requests in the Subpoena are repetitive of the requests that have already been

sent to the Authority and PPHS regarding this matter

Counsel from the Law Firm had two conversations with FTC counsel Goldie Walker and

Thomas Brock on June 16 2011 and June 20 2011 regarding whether any appropnate

modifications andor limitations to the Subpoena could be made given the fact that the Subpoena

was served upon a law firm actively representing a pany involved in pending litigation and an

on-going FTC investigation as well as representing two (2) panies involved in pending

transactional matters After the June 16 2011 call Karin Middleton of the Law Firm committed

to again review the Subpoena for the purpose of gleanmg if there could be any responsive

information to which the FTC would be entitled that could not be provided by the parties or third

parties The FTC and the Law Firm agreed to speak again on June 20 20 II

During those conversations and in a subsequent letter from the FTC on June 21 20 II the

FTC failed to show (or even articulate) good cause as to why it needs this informatIon from the

Law Firm as required by the FTC administrative rules and common law principles favoring the

preservation of the attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine when this

information can clearly be sought (or already has been sought) from the parties and third parties

in this action Beyond this basic threshold premise as more fully outlined below the Law Firm

indicated to the ITCs counsel that the Subpoena is overly broad and unduly burdensome on the

Law Firm given its history ofrepresentation ofPPHS cumulative of prior document requests

and highly unlikely to result in any new information that has not already been produced to the

FTC or subject to the attorney client privilege (AC Privilege) or attorney work product

doctrine (WP Doctrine) The only response that the Law Firm could give would be a privilege

3

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

4 See Bonner v Prichard 66 1 F2d 1206 (11th CiT 1981 Xadopting as binding precedent all decisions issued by the 5lh Circuit before Sept 30 198 1) 5 In the event that the Administrative Law Judge wishes to review the subpoenas issued 10 the Authority PPHS and Sovereign Group LLC in their entirety the Law Firm will provide them upon request

LewislBaudino Law Group PLC) that refer or relate in any way to the purchase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

7 All documents since 1985 that refer to or relate in any way to the purchase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

13 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the draft Management Services Agreement PP-HC-00002950

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

CFR sect 334 (c) Baudino Law Group PLC (Law Firm) hereby files its Motion to Quash

Subpoena Duces Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum as

follows

I PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The parties to this action have asserted immunity from this administrative action and the

proceedings pending before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia

under the state action doctrine The Law Firm s filing of this Motion to Quash Subpoena Duces

Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum is not intended to waive

the dispositive issue of the applicability of the state action immunity doctrine and all defenses to

these actions are specifically Incorporated by reference herein

II INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY

The Law Firm is a law firm based in Des Moines Iowa with two offices in Georgia It

has a longstanding relationship with the Respondent In this matter Phoebe Putney Health

System Inc (PPHS) representing it in litigation as well as transactional matters since its

formation The Law Firm presently represents PPHS on several matters most of which are

unrelated to the matter presently before the Admmistrative Law Judge The Law Firm has also

represented the Respondent the Hospital Authority of Albany-Dougherty County (Authority)

regarding various matters over the years

Prior to December 21 2010 Palmyra Hospital Inc (Palmyra) the Authority and

PPHS negotiated an Asset Purchase Agreement for the Authority to purchase Palmyra Medical

Center from Palmyra On December 212010 the Authority and Palmyra signed an Asset

Purchase Agreement for the Authority to acquire Palmyra Medical Center (Transaction) The

Law Firm is representing the Authority and PPHS as transactional counsel with regard to this

Transaction Although the Law Firm has on-going representation of PPHS on multiple unrelated

matters as mentioned above on November 10 20 10 the Law Firm was retained to represent the

Authority specifically with regard to the Transaction

On December 29 2010 the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition (FTC)

informed the parties that it had opened a non-public preliminary investigation of the proposed

Transaction Shortly thereafter PPHS retained the Weil Gotshal amp Manges LLP law firm in

Washington DC to represent PPHS in this FTC investigation The Law Firm undertook

representation of the Authority for purposes of the FTC investigation along with Bondurant

Mixson amp Elmore LLP a law firm based in Atlanta Georgia which is lead counsel regarding

the FTC investigation on behalf of the Authority At all times material hereto Perry amp Walters

LLP a law firm based in Albany Georgia represents the Authority as general counsel

On February 3 2011 PPHS was informed by letter that the FTC changed its investigation

from a preliminary investigation to a formal Investigation During the course of the preliminary

investigation as well as the formal investigation the Authority and PPHS produced

documentation amounting to over 250000 pages to the FTC Despite complete cooperation

with the FTCs requests to resolve its questions without formal litigation with regard to the

Transaction on April 26 2011 a complaint for temporary restraining order and preliminary

injunction was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia by the

FTC and the Attorney General for the State ofGeorgia A complaint before the Administrative

Law Judge was filed on April 19 2011 regarding the same matter

On June 13 20 11 a Subpoena Duces Tecum was served upon the Law Firm with a

compliance date of July I 2011 (Subpoena) 1 The documents sought in the Subpoena mirror

I The Subpoena is attached hereto as Exhibit A

2

the documents the FTC seeks in an almost identical Subpoena Duces TeCllm served upon the

Sovereign Group LLC a third party to this action with the same July 1 2011 compliance

date Funher the requests in the Subpoena are repetitive of the requests that have already been

sent to the Authority and PPHS regarding this matter

Counsel from the Law Firm had two conversations with FTC counsel Goldie Walker and

Thomas Brock on June 16 2011 and June 20 2011 regarding whether any appropnate

modifications andor limitations to the Subpoena could be made given the fact that the Subpoena

was served upon a law firm actively representing a pany involved in pending litigation and an

on-going FTC investigation as well as representing two (2) panies involved in pending

transactional matters After the June 16 2011 call Karin Middleton of the Law Firm committed

to again review the Subpoena for the purpose of gleanmg if there could be any responsive

information to which the FTC would be entitled that could not be provided by the parties or third

parties The FTC and the Law Firm agreed to speak again on June 20 20 II

During those conversations and in a subsequent letter from the FTC on June 21 20 II the

FTC failed to show (or even articulate) good cause as to why it needs this informatIon from the

Law Firm as required by the FTC administrative rules and common law principles favoring the

preservation of the attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine when this

information can clearly be sought (or already has been sought) from the parties and third parties

in this action Beyond this basic threshold premise as more fully outlined below the Law Firm

indicated to the ITCs counsel that the Subpoena is overly broad and unduly burdensome on the

Law Firm given its history ofrepresentation ofPPHS cumulative of prior document requests

and highly unlikely to result in any new information that has not already been produced to the

FTC or subject to the attorney client privilege (AC Privilege) or attorney work product

doctrine (WP Doctrine) The only response that the Law Firm could give would be a privilege

3

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

4 See Bonner v Prichard 66 1 F2d 1206 (11th CiT 1981 Xadopting as binding precedent all decisions issued by the 5lh Circuit before Sept 30 198 1) 5 In the event that the Administrative Law Judge wishes to review the subpoenas issued 10 the Authority PPHS and Sovereign Group LLC in their entirety the Law Firm will provide them upon request

13 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the draft Management Services Agreement PP-HC-00002950

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Pursuant to Section sect 334 (c) of the Federal Trade Commission s (FTC) Rules of Practice 16

CFR sect 334 (c) Baudino Law Group PLC (Law Firm) hereby files its Motion to Quash

Subpoena Duces Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum as

follows

I PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The parties to this action have asserted immunity from this administrative action and the

proceedings pending before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia

under the state action doctrine The Law Firm s filing of this Motion to Quash Subpoena Duces

Tecum or in the Alternative Motion to Limit Subpoena Duces Tecum is not intended to waive

the dispositive issue of the applicability of the state action immunity doctrine and all defenses to

these actions are specifically Incorporated by reference herein

II INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY

The Law Firm is a law firm based in Des Moines Iowa with two offices in Georgia It

has a longstanding relationship with the Respondent In this matter Phoebe Putney Health

System Inc (PPHS) representing it in litigation as well as transactional matters since its

formation The Law Firm presently represents PPHS on several matters most of which are

unrelated to the matter presently before the Admmistrative Law Judge The Law Firm has also

represented the Respondent the Hospital Authority of Albany-Dougherty County (Authority)

regarding various matters over the years

Prior to December 21 2010 Palmyra Hospital Inc (Palmyra) the Authority and

PPHS negotiated an Asset Purchase Agreement for the Authority to purchase Palmyra Medical

Center from Palmyra On December 212010 the Authority and Palmyra signed an Asset

Purchase Agreement for the Authority to acquire Palmyra Medical Center (Transaction) The

Law Firm is representing the Authority and PPHS as transactional counsel with regard to this

Transaction Although the Law Firm has on-going representation of PPHS on multiple unrelated

matters as mentioned above on November 10 20 10 the Law Firm was retained to represent the

Authority specifically with regard to the Transaction

On December 29 2010 the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition (FTC)

informed the parties that it had opened a non-public preliminary investigation of the proposed

Transaction Shortly thereafter PPHS retained the Weil Gotshal amp Manges LLP law firm in

Washington DC to represent PPHS in this FTC investigation The Law Firm undertook

representation of the Authority for purposes of the FTC investigation along with Bondurant

Mixson amp Elmore LLP a law firm based in Atlanta Georgia which is lead counsel regarding

the FTC investigation on behalf of the Authority At all times material hereto Perry amp Walters

LLP a law firm based in Albany Georgia represents the Authority as general counsel

On February 3 2011 PPHS was informed by letter that the FTC changed its investigation

from a preliminary investigation to a formal Investigation During the course of the preliminary

investigation as well as the formal investigation the Authority and PPHS produced

documentation amounting to over 250000 pages to the FTC Despite complete cooperation

with the FTCs requests to resolve its questions without formal litigation with regard to the

Transaction on April 26 2011 a complaint for temporary restraining order and preliminary

injunction was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia by the

FTC and the Attorney General for the State ofGeorgia A complaint before the Administrative

Law Judge was filed on April 19 2011 regarding the same matter

On June 13 20 11 a Subpoena Duces Tecum was served upon the Law Firm with a

compliance date of July I 2011 (Subpoena) 1 The documents sought in the Subpoena mirror

I The Subpoena is attached hereto as Exhibit A

2

the documents the FTC seeks in an almost identical Subpoena Duces TeCllm served upon the

Sovereign Group LLC a third party to this action with the same July 1 2011 compliance

date Funher the requests in the Subpoena are repetitive of the requests that have already been

sent to the Authority and PPHS regarding this matter

Counsel from the Law Firm had two conversations with FTC counsel Goldie Walker and

Thomas Brock on June 16 2011 and June 20 2011 regarding whether any appropnate

modifications andor limitations to the Subpoena could be made given the fact that the Subpoena

was served upon a law firm actively representing a pany involved in pending litigation and an

on-going FTC investigation as well as representing two (2) panies involved in pending

transactional matters After the June 16 2011 call Karin Middleton of the Law Firm committed

to again review the Subpoena for the purpose of gleanmg if there could be any responsive

information to which the FTC would be entitled that could not be provided by the parties or third

parties The FTC and the Law Firm agreed to speak again on June 20 20 II

During those conversations and in a subsequent letter from the FTC on June 21 20 II the

FTC failed to show (or even articulate) good cause as to why it needs this informatIon from the

Law Firm as required by the FTC administrative rules and common law principles favoring the

preservation of the attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine when this

information can clearly be sought (or already has been sought) from the parties and third parties

in this action Beyond this basic threshold premise as more fully outlined below the Law Firm

indicated to the ITCs counsel that the Subpoena is overly broad and unduly burdensome on the

Law Firm given its history ofrepresentation ofPPHS cumulative of prior document requests

and highly unlikely to result in any new information that has not already been produced to the

FTC or subject to the attorney client privilege (AC Privilege) or attorney work product

doctrine (WP Doctrine) The only response that the Law Firm could give would be a privilege

3

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

4 See Bonner v Prichard 66 1 F2d 1206 (11th CiT 1981 Xadopting as binding precedent all decisions issued by the 5lh Circuit before Sept 30 198 1) 5 In the event that the Administrative Law Judge wishes to review the subpoenas issued 10 the Authority PPHS and Sovereign Group LLC in their entirety the Law Firm will provide them upon request

LewislBaudino Law Group PLC) that refer or relate in any way to the purchase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

13 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the draft Management Services Agreement PP-HC-00002950

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 4: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

Law Firm is representing the Authority and PPHS as transactional counsel with regard to this

Transaction Although the Law Firm has on-going representation of PPHS on multiple unrelated

matters as mentioned above on November 10 20 10 the Law Firm was retained to represent the

Authority specifically with regard to the Transaction

On December 29 2010 the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition (FTC)

informed the parties that it had opened a non-public preliminary investigation of the proposed

Transaction Shortly thereafter PPHS retained the Weil Gotshal amp Manges LLP law firm in

Washington DC to represent PPHS in this FTC investigation The Law Firm undertook

representation of the Authority for purposes of the FTC investigation along with Bondurant

Mixson amp Elmore LLP a law firm based in Atlanta Georgia which is lead counsel regarding

the FTC investigation on behalf of the Authority At all times material hereto Perry amp Walters

LLP a law firm based in Albany Georgia represents the Authority as general counsel

On February 3 2011 PPHS was informed by letter that the FTC changed its investigation

from a preliminary investigation to a formal Investigation During the course of the preliminary

investigation as well as the formal investigation the Authority and PPHS produced

documentation amounting to over 250000 pages to the FTC Despite complete cooperation

with the FTCs requests to resolve its questions without formal litigation with regard to the

Transaction on April 26 2011 a complaint for temporary restraining order and preliminary

injunction was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia by the

FTC and the Attorney General for the State ofGeorgia A complaint before the Administrative

Law Judge was filed on April 19 2011 regarding the same matter

On June 13 20 11 a Subpoena Duces Tecum was served upon the Law Firm with a

compliance date of July I 2011 (Subpoena) 1 The documents sought in the Subpoena mirror

I The Subpoena is attached hereto as Exhibit A

2

the documents the FTC seeks in an almost identical Subpoena Duces TeCllm served upon the

Sovereign Group LLC a third party to this action with the same July 1 2011 compliance

date Funher the requests in the Subpoena are repetitive of the requests that have already been

sent to the Authority and PPHS regarding this matter

Counsel from the Law Firm had two conversations with FTC counsel Goldie Walker and

Thomas Brock on June 16 2011 and June 20 2011 regarding whether any appropnate

modifications andor limitations to the Subpoena could be made given the fact that the Subpoena

was served upon a law firm actively representing a pany involved in pending litigation and an

on-going FTC investigation as well as representing two (2) panies involved in pending

transactional matters After the June 16 2011 call Karin Middleton of the Law Firm committed

to again review the Subpoena for the purpose of gleanmg if there could be any responsive

information to which the FTC would be entitled that could not be provided by the parties or third

parties The FTC and the Law Firm agreed to speak again on June 20 20 II

During those conversations and in a subsequent letter from the FTC on June 21 20 II the

FTC failed to show (or even articulate) good cause as to why it needs this informatIon from the

Law Firm as required by the FTC administrative rules and common law principles favoring the

preservation of the attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine when this

information can clearly be sought (or already has been sought) from the parties and third parties

in this action Beyond this basic threshold premise as more fully outlined below the Law Firm

indicated to the ITCs counsel that the Subpoena is overly broad and unduly burdensome on the

Law Firm given its history ofrepresentation ofPPHS cumulative of prior document requests

and highly unlikely to result in any new information that has not already been produced to the

FTC or subject to the attorney client privilege (AC Privilege) or attorney work product

doctrine (WP Doctrine) The only response that the Law Firm could give would be a privilege

3

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

13 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the draft Management Services Agreement PP-HC-00002950

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 5: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

the documents the FTC seeks in an almost identical Subpoena Duces TeCllm served upon the

Sovereign Group LLC a third party to this action with the same July 1 2011 compliance

date Funher the requests in the Subpoena are repetitive of the requests that have already been

sent to the Authority and PPHS regarding this matter

Counsel from the Law Firm had two conversations with FTC counsel Goldie Walker and

Thomas Brock on June 16 2011 and June 20 2011 regarding whether any appropnate

modifications andor limitations to the Subpoena could be made given the fact that the Subpoena

was served upon a law firm actively representing a pany involved in pending litigation and an

on-going FTC investigation as well as representing two (2) panies involved in pending

transactional matters After the June 16 2011 call Karin Middleton of the Law Firm committed

to again review the Subpoena for the purpose of gleanmg if there could be any responsive

information to which the FTC would be entitled that could not be provided by the parties or third

parties The FTC and the Law Firm agreed to speak again on June 20 20 II

During those conversations and in a subsequent letter from the FTC on June 21 20 II the

FTC failed to show (or even articulate) good cause as to why it needs this informatIon from the

Law Firm as required by the FTC administrative rules and common law principles favoring the

preservation of the attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine when this

information can clearly be sought (or already has been sought) from the parties and third parties

in this action Beyond this basic threshold premise as more fully outlined below the Law Firm

indicated to the ITCs counsel that the Subpoena is overly broad and unduly burdensome on the

Law Firm given its history ofrepresentation ofPPHS cumulative of prior document requests

and highly unlikely to result in any new information that has not already been produced to the

FTC or subject to the attorney client privilege (AC Privilege) or attorney work product

doctrine (WP Doctrine) The only response that the Law Firm could give would be a privilege

3

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 6: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

log that would be unduly burdensome to prepare 2 Despite the Law Firms arguments presented

during the phone conferences the FTCs counsel sent a letter after 500 pm on June 21 20 II

incompletely summarizing the Law Firm s position (and inaccurately characterizing the Law

Firm s representation ofthe Authority and PPHS) and indicating that the FTC and the Law Firm

have reached an impasse Notably absent from the conversations and the letter from the FTC is

any suggestion by the FTC as to how to limit its request to address the Law Firms legitimate

concerns regarding confidentiality as it relates to law firms and its clients generally and the

unduly burdensome and cumulative nature of the Subpoena

III ARGUMENT

A The Subpoena is Improper Based Upon Well Established Common Law Principles That Apply to Law Firms and Their Clients With Regard To Maintaining Client Confidences

The Subpoena served on the Law Firm is improper for the basic reason that a law firm

has a duty to maintain its clients confidences and therefore is not obligated to respond to such

requests without a heightened showing from the party seeking the documentation The Subpoena

served upon the Law Firm is a fifteen (15) page document that requests documents generated or

transmitted In its representation of the Law Firm s clients Specifically the FTC seeks sixteen

(16) Specifications of documents in accordance with the Definitions and Instructions set forth

The Specifications describe documents generated by lawyers representing clients in active and

pending matters

Obviously many of these documents sought by the FTC include documents generated by

lawyers that are subject to the AC Privilege WP Doctrine andor the lawyers ethical duty to

maintain their clients confidences See eg Georgia Rules of Professional Responsibility R

2 Thomas Brock oflhe FrC did offer to exclude from the privilege log any documents or communications that were internal only to the Law Firm While this concession is helpful in preparing a privilege log it would likely result in a privilege log that is virtually identical to the ones already produced by the parties and third parties in this matter and would not relieve the Law Firm of the undul y burdensome search that it seeks to avoid

4

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 7: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

16 (requiring a lawyer maintain In confidence all information gained in the professional

relationship with the client) The FTC rules also recognize the eXistence of various privileges

with regard to service ofa subpoena by the FTC See 16 CFR sect 334 (c)

The AC Privilege is the oldest of the privileges for the confidential communications

known to the common law Upjohn Co v United States 449 US 383 389 (1981) The purpose

of the AC Privilege is to facilitate full and frank disclosure between attorneys and clients Id

The AC Privilege protects confidential disclosures by a client to an attorney made in order to

obtain legal assistance Fisher v United Stale 425 US 391 403 (1976) In order to invoke

the AC Privilege the follOWing must be established (I) the asserted holder of the privilege is a

client (2) the person to whom the communication was made is a member of the bar and acting as

a lawyer in connection with the communication (3) the communication relates to a fact of which

the attorney was informed by the client without the presence of strangers for the purpose of

securing legal advice and (4) the privilege is claimed and not waived by the client U S v

Noriega 917 F2d 1543 1550 (11th Cir 1990)

The well recognized rule of Hickman v Taylor 329 US 495 510 (1947) protects the

work product of lawyers from discovery unless a substantial showing of necessity or justification

is made In order to assert the WP Doctrine the materials withheld must be (I) documents and

tangible things (2) prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial and (3) documents or

tangible things prepared by or for the party or attorney asserting the privilege Carnes v Crete

Carrier Corp 244 FRD 694 698 (ND Ga 2007)

An attorneyclient relationship was established between the Law Firm and PPHS back in

the early 1990s and with the Authority with regard to this Transaction on November 10 2010

Many of the documents requested in the Subpoena are either communicationsinformation

received by the Law Firm from PPHS and the Authority in their capacity as clients seeking legal

5

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 8: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

services from the Law Firm or documents and tangible things that the Law Firm has prepared

over the years in ant icipation of litigation or for trial Neither PPHS nor the Authority has

waived the applicable privileges and protections See Stern v Shelley 2009 US Dist LEXIS

130148 19 (N D Ga Aug 28 2009)(noting that the AC Privilege belongs to the client and

only the client may waive it) As the Fifth Circuit held [tJhe purpose ofthe [AC] [PJ rivIiege

would be undermined if people were required to confide in attorneys at the peril of compulsory

disclosure every time the government decided to subpoena attorneys it believed represented

particular susptcted indiv iduub See us v Hankim 631 F2d 360 365 (1980) quoling us v

Jones 517 F2d 666 675 (5th Cir 1975) ReqUifing the Law Firm to comply with the Subpcena

would completely undermine the purpose of its AC Privilege and WP Doctnne with both PPHS

and the Authority See also Swidler amp Berlin v United Slales 524 US 399 (1998) (upholding

the application of the AC Privilege and WP Doctrine where the government served subpoenas

upon law firms reasonmg that reason and experience as well as the governments counsels

failure to make a sufficient showing to overturn common law rule prevented the disclosure of the

law firm s files) Further the Law Firm s relationship with its clients would be seriously

weakened if they fear that the Law Firm could disclose to an opposing party their records andor

other communications Hankins 631 F2d at 365

B Applicable Legal Principles for Agency Subpoenas Require A Good Cause Showing

Notwithstanding the fact that the clear applicability of the AC Privilege WP Doctrine

and ethical duties to maintain client confidences renders the Subpoena On the Law Firm

improper the FTC rules specifically provide that whi le the parties may obtain discovery

reasonably expected to yield information relevant to the allegations of the complaint the

respondent is not required to search for materials generated and transmitted between an entity s

J Bonner v Prichard 661 F2d 1206 ( 11th Cir 1981 )(adopting as binding precedence all decisions by the 5h Circuit issued before Sept 30 198 1)

6

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Counselor Respondent Hospital Authority ofAlbany-Dougherty County

By Goldie V Walker Esq Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition

15

Page 9: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

counsel and not shared with anyone else unless the Administrative Law Judge determines there is

good cause to provide such materials 16 CFR sect331 (c)(2) An Administrative Law Judge

may limit the discovery sought ifhe or she determines that

(i) The discovery is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative or is obtainable from some other source that is more convenient less burdensome or less expensive~

(ii) The party seeking discovery has had ample opportunity by discovery in the action to obtain the information sought ~ or

(iii) The burden and expense of the proposed discovery outweigh its likely benefit

16 CFR sect3 31(c)(2)

The drafters of the good cause requirement recognized that it would be rare for any

material sought from an entity s counsel not to be duplicative privileged or work product 74 FR

1804 (January 13 2009) The reason is simple ~ the material generated and transmitted by an

entity s lawyers is protected from discovery by the AC Privilege or WP Doctrine or could be

produced by the party itself As recently as 2009 the FTC adjusted its own agency rules

defining the scope of discovery The Rules adopted a good cause requirement that must be

met before materials generated or transmitted by lawyers can be produced Nowhere in the

Subpoena served upon the Law Firm is there any determination of good cause as required by

Rule 331 (c)(2) Therefore in this case the Law Firm can unequivocally demonstrate that all

three (3) of the above-listed guidelines apply to this matter thereby making the FTC s Subpoena

on the Law Firm improper

1 The Discovery Sought is Unreasonably Cumulative Obtainable From Another Source or Could Have Already Been Obtained

The documents sought by Complaint Counsel include retainer agreements and

communications that relate to the Palmyra Medical Center purchase These documents are

unreasonably cumulative because since January 14 2011 the Authority PPHS and Palmyra (or

HCA Inc its parent corporation) have produced transaction documents to the FTC both on an

7

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

4 See Bonner v Prichard 66 1 F2d 1206 (11th CiT 1981 Xadopting as binding precedent all decisions issued by the 5lh Circuit before Sept 30 198 1) 5 In the event that the Administrative Law Judge wishes to review the subpoenas issued 10 the Authority PPHS and Sovereign Group LLC in their entirety the Law Firm will provide them upon request

8

LewislBaudino Law Group PLC) that refer or relate in any way to the purchase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

7 All documents since 1985 that refer to or relate in any way to the purchase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

8 All documents that refer to or relate in any way to tbe December 2]2010 Asset Purchase Agreement By and Among the Hospital Authority of Albany-Dougherty County Phoebe Putney Health Systems loc Phoebe North ]nc and Palmyra Park Hospital Inc

9 AU documents tbat relate in any way to the Resolution of tbe Hospital Authority Approving Proposed Transaction with Palmyra Park Hospital Inc Authorizing Waiver of Lease Provision Approving Management Agreement and Declaring Official Intent Relative to Possible Tax Exempt Financing dated December 2] 20]0

]0 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Resolution of the Hospital Authority Relating to Funding of Authority Obligations Under the Asset Purchase Agreement Development of a Lease and Amendment of Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 2 2011

II All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Resolution of Hospital Authority Approving Execution and Delivery of Second Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement and Approving Basic Terms and Provisions to Be Included in Any Revised Lease With Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital Inc dated April 4 2011

12 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Resolution of Hospital Authority dated May 5 2011

13 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the draft Management Services Agreement PP-HC-00002950

14 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the meetings of the Hospital Authority on or about December 2120]0 February 2 201] April 4 2011 or May 5 2011

15 All documents tbat refer or relale in any way 10 the letter from the Company to Mr Joseph A Sowell 111 Senior Vice president and Chief Development Officer HCA Inc dated November 102010 This specification includes drafts and underlying research and analysis you conducted in preparation of this letter

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 10: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

informal basis and then pursuant to formal subpoenas See eg In re Thompson 624 F2d 17 19

(5th Cir I 980)(noting that the government who issued a subpoena on an attorney seeking items

of work product failed to show that the government did not otherwise have the information it

sought or that it lacked the opportunity to do so )4

Additionally the FTC has already sought transaction documents relating to

communications or meetings between the Authority and Palmyra from the Authoritl

Specifically in Specification eight (8) of the Subpoena Duces Tecum served upon the Authority

the Authority was asked to produce all documents relating to the proposed acquisition

See Subpoena Duces Tecum issued February 14 2011

Similarly upon information and belief the FTC has already requested all documents

relating to the proposed acquisition from PPHS

And most recently Complaint Counsel seeks IDENTICAL DOCUMENTS from the

Sovereign Group LLC For instance aside from the first two requests seeking retainer

agreements involving PPHS and the Authority both subpoenas request the following identical

documents from both the Sovereign Group LLC and the Law Firm

3 All tommunintions with the Hospital Authority tbat refer or relate in any way to tbe purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital Inc by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

4 All communintions with Phoebe Putney that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medical Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

5 All tommunintions with HeAPalmyra that refer or relate in any way to the purthase of Palmyra Medinl Center or Palmyra Park Hospital by Phoebe Putney or the Hospital Authority

6 All communications with ISovereign Group or Douglas

16 All documents that refer or relate in any way to the Jetter from

9

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

extent it requests documents that are not relevant to the FTC s investigation

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Counselor Respondent Hospital Authority ofAlbany-Dougherty County

By Goldie V Walker Esq Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition

15

Page 12: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

[Sovereign Group PLC Baudino Law Group PLCI to Mr Joseph A Sowell Ill Senior Vice presiden~ and CbiefDevelopment Officer HCA Inc dated November 10 2010

Even if Complaint Counsel does not already possess the information sought Complaint

Counsel has had ample opportunity to obtain the information listed from sources other than the

Law Firm This investigation was Initiated by the FTC in December 2010 Since then the

respondents have cooperated by producing the requested documents on both an informal and

formal basis

Thus the documents sought by the FTC are overly cumulative as the documents are

already In the FTC s possession could have been sought from the parties involved by virtue of

the subpoenas served upon both the Authority and PPHS in February or are currently being

sought from another source ie the Sovereign Group LLC The FTC s repeated failure to

articulate a good cause reason why it was seeking this information from the Law Firm even after

Law Firm communicated its legitimate concerns with regard to the overly broad nature of the

Subpoena when it has either already requested this information from other parties or could

otherwise obtain this information from other parties or third parties borders on harassment and

therefore this Subpoena should be quashed in its entirety

2 Tbe Burden and Expense oftbe Proposed Discovery Outweighs Benefit

The burden and expense of requiring the Law Firm to produce a limited number of non-

privileged and non-protected responsive documents outweighs the benefits sought by Complaint

CounseL See FTC v Texaco Inc 555 F2d 862 879 (DC Cir 1977) cerl denied 431 US 974

(I 977)(stating that a subpoena must be enforced if the information sought is reasonable to the

lawful purpose of the agency and not unduly Indefinite or unreasonably burdensome)(emphasis

suppl ied) First the search terms needed for the electronic documents will most likely result in

thousands of documents that are not likely material andor relevant to this matter or otherwise

10

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

OBJECTION

The Law Firm incorporates by reference all of its general objections set forth in Section

IV above The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent that it already has or could

request it from the Respondent or a third party it is already in its possession or any other

potentially responsive information in the Law Firm s possession would be protected by the AC

Privilege WP Doctrine or ethical duty The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent

that it is overbroad in that the Law Firm cannot search for collect process review and produce

all non-privileged documents and non-protected information responsive to this specification

within the 18 days required by the Subpoena The Law Firm objects to this specification to the

extent it requests documents that are not relevant to the FTC s investigation

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

Page 13: D09348 - Baudino Law Group, PLC's Motion to Quash ......Thomas Brock, on June 16, 2011 and June 20, 2011 , regarding whether any appropnate modifications and/or limitations to the

protected by AC Privilege andor WP Doctnne since the Law Firm has been representing one or

more parties to this matter since at least the early 1990s

Second the overly broad and burdensome requests contained in the Subpoena would

obstruct the Law Firm s normal business operations See Texaco Inc 555 F2d at 882 (a

subpoena may be unduly burdensome if it unduly disrupts or seriously hinders a business

normal operations) The burden ofsearchmg the Law Firm s hard copy and electronic

documents for the last twenty-six (26) years ie since 1985 is unreasonable and a monumental

task to undertake within eighteen (18) days

Third the expense that would be incurred by having attorneys review the documents that

would be returned in a twenty-six (26) year search for responsiveness and if responsive for

privilege and then prepare a voluminous privilege log describing the documents and explaining

the basis for withholding each responsive document would cost the Law Firm hundreds of hours

of valuable attorney time

Thus the undue burden and expense of attempting to put forth even a good faith attempt

to comply with the Subpoena would require the Law Firm s attorneys to divert their attention

away from working on matters for its other clients and result m a disruption of the Law Firm s

normal business operations Certainly the benefit of obtaining this limited amount if any of

proposed discovery does not warrant this burden or expense and therefore this Subpoena should

be quashed in its entirety

IV GENERAL OBJECTIONS

The Law Firm sets forth its general objections to the Subpoena below Each general

objection is hereby incorporated by reference into each specification of the Subpoena

I The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent that the materials sought were generated and transmitted by the Law Firm

11

and thus protected by AC privilege the WP Doctrine or any other applicable privilege or ethical

duty to maintain client confidences

2 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent the FTC has not demonstrated the good cause required by 16 CFR sect

l31 (c)(2) to justify a search for materials generated and transmitted by respondent s counsel

1 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they are cumulative duplicative andor available from a more convenient

less burdensome or less expensive source

4 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena to the extent they unreasonably require production of documents and information

within eighteen (18) days of receipt of the Subpoena Eighteen (18) days is not a practical time

period to search for collect process review and produce all non-privileged and non-protected

documents and information responsive to the Subpoena

5 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

Subpoena on the ground that compliance with all of the specifications IS unduly burdensome on

the Law Firm and would unduly disrupt and seriously hinder normal operations of the Law

Firm s busmess

6 The Law Firm objects to instruction C in the Subpoena in that it defines Company

as Baudmo Law Group PLC its domestic and foreign parents predecessors divisions

subsidiaries affiliate partnerships and joint ventures and all directors officers employees

agents and representatives of each of the foregoing The Law Firm objects to Instruction C in

the Subpoena because it requires the Law Firm to search entities and facilities that are unlikely to

have relevant documents or information

7 The Law Firm objects to the specifications definitions and instructions in the

12

Subpoena on the ground that they are unreasonably broad given that the Law Firm has only

eighteen (18) days to comply with all of the specifications in the Subpoena

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

OBJECTION

The Law Firm incorporates by reference all of its general objections set forth in Section

IV above The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent that it already has or could

request it from the Respondent or a third party it is already in its possession or any other

potentially responsive information in the Law Firm s possession would be protected by the AC

Privilege WP Doctrine or ethical duty The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent

that it is overbroad in that the Law Firm cannot search for collect process review and produce

all non-privileged documents and non-protected information responsive to this specification

within the 18 days required by the Subpoena The Law Firm objects to this specification to the

extent it requests documents that are not relevant to the FTC s investigation

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel

in its entirety In the alternative in the unlikely event that the Administrative Law Judge does

not quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel Law Firm respectfully

requests that the Administrative Law Judge limit the scope of the Subpoena Duces Tecum to

documents that Complaint Counsel cannot otherwise obtain from a third party documents

unrelated to the representation of the parties to this matter and limit the source of the documents

to relevant computers

OBJECTION

The Law Firm incorporates by reference all of its general objections set forth in Section

IV above The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent that it already has or could

request it from the Respondent or a third party it is already in its possession or any other

potentially responsive information in the Law Firm s possession would be protected by the AC

Privilege WP Doctrine or ethical duty The Law Firm objects to this specification to the extent

that it is overbroad in that the Law Firm cannot search for collect process review and produce

all non-privileged documents and non-protected information responsive to this specification

within the 18 days required by the Subpoena The Law Firm objects to this specification to the

extent it requests documents that are not relevant to the FTC s investigation

VI CONCLUSION

It is the FTC s burden to show good cause as to why Law Firm should be required to

produce documents and materials pursuant to the Subpoena when the information can clearly be

sought (or already has been sought) from the parties andor third parties The FTC has failed to

meet this burden Thus for all of the foregoing reasons the Law Firm respectfully requests that

the Administrative Law Judge quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum served by Complaint Counsel
